New abortion law thoughts.

Georgia and Alabama have recently passed abortion laws that
are in violation of federal law.

Here are some points to consider –

Unplanned pregnancy can create poverty. This is why there are
so many food drives, baby supply drives, and school supply drives. Did you know
that in America in 2001, over half the pregnancies were unintended? And half of
those were from contraception that failed. (I’m sure there are more current
figures but I suspect they are similar.) I challenge all my pro-life friends to
propose a real solution.

On a related note: perhaps it is time for all women in
America (not just Georgia and Alabama) to stop having sex with men. I wonder
how long it will take for their partners to petition the government to provide
free, 100% effective, side-effect free contraception.

What we need is perfect contraception, where there are no
unintended pregnancies. That will solve this issue (and many others).
Abstinence isn’t something everyone is capable of.

When every anti-abortion person is willing to adopt every unintended baby, then I will know they are pro-life. But as it is, when they say they will kill a mother who has an abortion, they are not pro-life at all. They are for forcing women to have children that they know they are unprepared for. They are creating further poverty on every level – children who are unwanted, growing up in homes where there isn’t enough time or money to afford them.
